5 stars I always say that this is the best album of all times, not my favorite, but damn good!!! The Beatles reached their peak with this one. Lennon´s experimentation would bring the mini suite happyness is a warm gun, the weird Every has got something to hide except me and my monkey, the great lyrics of Revolution 1, the touching and simple Dear Prudence and the progressive blues of Yer Blues among others. Mccartney as always delivers some great pop songs like back in the USSR, Mother nature son, the excellent Blackbird and the proto heavy Helter Skelter. Harrison surprises with Long, Long,Long and the memorable While my guitar gently weeps. Even Ringo has a song of his own: Don´t pass me by. This album really shows how advanced the Beatles were for their time...it was 1968, noone was doing something like this!!! Floyd was still a psicodelyc pop band, Frank Zappa was going for it, but still wasn´t there, jethro Tull was more of a blues,folk band ...really the Beatles were miles ahead of every one...and in many ways still are.
